[elrepo] wl-kmod error at installing

[Diego Farias]

Hi Steve :

[root at localhost dafh]# ls /var/lib/dkms/
dkms_dbversion  psmouse
[root at localhost dafh]# dkms status
psmouse, alps-1.3: added
[root at localhost dafh]# find /usr/src/ -type -f -name dkms.conf
find: Arguments to -type should contain only one letter
[root at localhost dafh]# find /usr/src/ -type f -name dkms.conf
/usr/src/psmouse-alps-1.3/dkms.conf

Yes, maybe it's related to dkms. If I'm not going to use it, can it be
removed or something?
